On June 26, Carmel resident Jeff Graves is giving everyone a good rea-son to get muddy with the Mudathlon.

Mudathlon is a series of mud-based obstacles, and the whole event is de-scribed as “a mucking good time.” The four-mile course is made up of 30-foot mudslides, mud pits and cargo nets. The Mudathlon is challenging, but the goal is to be dirty. The course ends with a beer and some live music for every newly crowned “Mudathlete” on the course.

Graves ran the course at White River Paintball in Anderson as it was completed. At the 30-foot natural mudslide, Graves had to ask himself what he was getting himself into.

“The mud at the bottom was suck-ing the shoes right off my feet,” he said. “When they tell you to tighten your shoes at the beginning, they mean it.”

Graves sees the Mudathlon as some-thing different for running enthusiasts. Most of the events are held outside of the state. There have been 10 Muda-thlons in the Midwest.

“We are hoping to have future Mu-dathlons in Indiana so that everyone doesn’t need to travel as much,” Graves said.

The course at White River Paintball in Anderson is focused on fun and if someone doesn’t want to attempt the obstacle they just continue on past it.

Starting in waves each group will be spread out so everyone has enough time to enjoy the mess. Setting up the course was the toughest part for Graves.

“It’s not like setting up a marathon on the street,” he said. “We try to in-corporate the natural surroundings of every course we come up with.”

A month before this year’s event, the Indianapolis-area Mudathlon already had more than 600 registrants, and that number has kept growing.

“The whole thing has turned out to be bigger than I envisioned,” Graves said.

Go to www.Mudathlon.com to find out what you can do to get registered.

Local resident’s course gives people an excuse to get muddy

The Mudathlon is filled with unusual obstacles – and names. Here are a few of them:Mucking Mud Pit – The only way to cross this mess is face downSmoke Screen Start – Mudathletes run through a smoke screen cloud and hope they get going in the right directionTunnel of Terror – Dive in and crawl through some muddy messFrantic Firing Range – At some point in the Mudathlon course, participants become targets. Of course, it is all in good funHeaping Hay Bails – Mudathlon reserves the right to use these in a multitude of ways, whether you climbing over them, picking them up, or pushing them, they will be out there

what to expect

John Schaaf, market manager for the Downtown Westfield Neighborhood Association, said the West-field Farmers Market had an impressive opening this year with over 1,000 people showing up despite weath-er reports warning of storms.

The market is held every Friday from 4 to 8 p.m., running now through August 8. Twenty-five vendors sell a variety of items. From cupcakes to fresh produce, the market provides Westfield with items they might not find at other markets in the county.

Kei Tea, for example, takes locally grown herbs like chamomile and peppermint to infuse its teas with deli-cious flavor. This is Kei Tea’s second year with the market, and co-owner Julie Fernatt said so far, weather has only caused concern on one night as a result of high winds.

“It almost took our tent down a couple of times, but the turnout was great,” she said.

While early turnouts have been good, Schaaf said he expects more crowds at the Westfield Farmers Market once more produce comes into season.

“We’ll have more sweet corn, fresh tomatoes and on-ions in the coming weeks,” Schaaf said.

Despite weather concerns, early market turnouts were high

It is our position that Exit 10 off I-69 is in demand of a filling station. With the boom of housing and commerce Hamilton Towne Center and Verizon Wireless Music Center have brought to Noblesville, citizens can find anything they might possibly need – that is, except a place to get gas.

A trendy setting full of business suites and shops, Exit 10 has quickly earned potential to be one of the more popular stops for motorists com-muting north and south along I-69. With a variety of attractions available to travelers right off the exit, an upper-end establishment to fill up the car would fit comfortably into the scenery while providing for a huge demand to the hundreds of shoppers and employees visiting the area every day.

With all the steps that have been taken to make Exit 10 the place consumers look forward to visiting, a fuel station would assist more in the effort by attracting those who are just looking for a place to fill up. With gas stations along 90 percent of the undeveloped exits in the country, a place to fuel up at Exit 10 would be convenient and keep the tax dollars at home.

Got gas? Slow death or fastIt is our position that the recent move by Gov.

Mitch Daniels and the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) to again delay the long-promised and much-postponed improvements on U.S. 31 across Hamilton County is as much as killing the project. Promised more than a decade ago, plans to improve the stretch of highway to limited-access comes not only from its impor-tant economic position but also from the loss of life claimed by overtaxed and under-designed intersections along the route.

Speed, volume and design have all been taken into account through several studies, designs and redesigns over the past several years. And INDOT has promised action with each one. Yet other than keeping those folks employed, very little action has occurred. It is time for political lead-ers to live up to their promises. Daniels and his administration committed that this project would be well underway in 2011. If he cannot get the job done, both Carmel and Westfield have joined in offering to take over the project and do the work directly. The state should let them.

Public safety should be paramount every-where, and Westfield is no exception. Last week, to ensure safe traffic flow on Ind. 32 west of U.S. 31, the Westfield Police Dept. deployed officers to nail drivers for making illegal U-turns. They had grown accustomed to doing so in order change direction. The problem, in our view, was that no notice was given. All that was made available was a slew of $25 traffic citations. When a change in driving patterns and practices is in order – and we do not oppose this step up, which will heighten the chance for additional safety – a little notice well in advance would be appreciated. We’re told by the department the state ordered the change. The median around which the U-turns were being made was in place for nearly a month by the time the ticket parade began. It was the state’s order, and the state should have taken proper steps to alert motorists. Habits can be changed. Communication is the key. In this case, the Indiana Dept. of Transportation crashed and burned. Badly.

• • •Westfield Rocks the Fourth will roll out

its inaugural edition – oddly enough on July

4 – at Asa Bales Park, with the hope of mak-ing it an annual tradition. We encourage you to help it achieve just that. A day of music is in store, culminating with an 8 p.m. concert by the legendary Duke Tumatoe & the Power Trio. There will be a car show, food from local eateries, a crafts area, a vendors’ section, a kids’ play area and fireworks at 9:45 p.m. This event is being billed as a new tradition for our city. We certainly hope it becomes one and continues to grow as the city does. For more information, please visit www.westfiel-drocksthe4th.com.

That U-turn? State failed to alert us COmmentarYBy terry anker

How do we have a thoughtful conversation about race in this fine country? And who has standing to discuss the issue? Many years ago (in fact, many, many), I was enjoying a seminar in law school (now the Michael Maurer School of Law – thank you Jane & Mickey) on the topic of race and the law.

It was taught by our Constitutional law pro-fessor, himself a black American. A member of the class asserted that only whites could be racist. The view was that racism suggested the perceived superiority of that particular race over all others. The facts (that many whites did not participate in slavery, were from countries that never participated in it, and that many Africans of all races have owned slaves for centuries) were not relevant, because the argument presupposed that racism was not a product of slavery but rather that slavery was a product of racism.

The debate that ensued was one of the most interesting I recall from my years at the study

of law. Sadly, the discourse was not a free one. Prejudices based largely in appearance meant that a comment from one would be severely discounted and a remark from another would be dismissed in wholesale.

If these thinking, young, and engaged folks were unable to find common ground even in the law, how will we find it today? President Obama suggests we talk it out over beer. Oth-ers believe race will become irrelevant through implementation of forced ideals of social jus-tice. I certainly don’t have the answer. And I know that the space allotted barely gets to the point. Isn’t it best if we look to our own hearts to determine how we will be labeled? And then let others think what they want? Aren’t they going to anyway?

I wanted to share with you the weight-loss plan some friends of mine organized for this summer. They were sitting around a picnic table over Memorial Day Weekend, eating brats and burg-ers, and they got to talking about how they all wanted to get in better shape. So they decided to hold their own “Biggest Loser” competition. I figured a lot of you are in the same boat and could maybe benefit from their idea. Here’s the deal:

Each participant has agreed to ante $300, to be reimbursed only if his or her weight loss goal is reached. They have three months to shed the lard, beginning June 1 and ending Labor Day, with weigh-ins only twice, bookending the summer. Their goals range from 10 to 30 pounds, depending on the amount of fatness presently on their bodies. Whoever attains her weight loss goal gets to split the forfeited loot of those who did not.

That’s it! But when you think about it, the plan in brilliant. Had I needed to drop a few pounds, this would have totally mo-tivated me. But alas, I was gifted with the skinny-minny genes of my mom (who is actually shrinking as the years go by – her wed-ding dress from 40 years ago still fits!) and an incurable disease that requires stimulant medication (hypothyroidism gets you the benefits of Synthroid, a metabolic booster). And not to sell my-self short, I work out regularly and eat OK already. But for most of my friends, this will be a challenge to not only lose weight but to make the change to a healthier lifestyle. And I honestly think they all have a shot at succeeding. Why?

First off, summer is the perfect time. The days are longer, so squeezing in walks and runs are much easier, and because there is no threat of ice or snow, most days are doable. Plus, something about the sun compels you to get outside and do something. You

almost feel guilty watching TV and chowing down a pint of Ben and Jerry’s Chunky Monkey (which I did the other day in a mo-mentary state of depression. Soooo good.) Furthermore, grocery stores and markets are flooded with local fresh produce, making the choice to eat healthier more realistic and economical. Finally, bathing suits and arm-baring tees offer their own special kind of incentive for shedding the gristle – the not-so-popular, but highly effective embarrassment factor. We all want to look good in skimpy clothing!

To accommodate everyone’s busy lives, there are no group activities scheduled, and each participant can design their own weight-loss plan. One of my friends is doing P90X, a DVD pro-gram that combines aerobics, weight training, and diet to achieve results in ninety days. His goal is 20 pounds. Another is simply trying to walk five times a week and not eat seconds. She also wants to lose 20 pounds. Two older “Biggest Loser” competitors will attempt to shed those pain-in-the-arse last 10 pounds by cut-ting back on fatty foods and increasing daily activity.

They are all motivated to stick to their guns for two reasons: No one wants to lose the cash, and more importantly, no one wants to be the only one not meeting his goal. They are account-able to themselves, to their spouses and children, and to each other. So I applaud their efforts. Even if they don’t succeed, they will have taken the first few steps to becoming healthier. Good luck, Biggest Losers, and to all of you trying to improve your-selves this summer! Peace out.

This year’s Westfield in Bloom features more participants compet-ing in new categories and their beautification efforts will be on dis-play this weekend.

The community beautification program that began last year in Westfield is growing by leaps and bounds. WIB added two new cat-egories to its beautification mission this year, and the entries in this year’s landscaping and floral dis-play competition have increased by around 40 percent.

The additional categories were added to include more types of floral displays and land-scapes, especially among businesses.

“We added the Best Entryway category to include people not in single-family homes,” said Kathy Grey, a WIB committee member. Grey added that two additional categories were added for both businesses and non-profit organizations such as churches and schools.

Judging of the event will be held all day this Saturday. Grey said signs will quickly be placed in the yards or windows of winning participants to help identify these homes for the public. Ad-ditionally, an awards ceremony will be held at the Woodwind Golf Club on July 15.

The event is an opportunity not only to en-

courage Westfield residents and businesses to ramp up their floral and natural displays, but also for others to enjoy and even get ideas from the hard work of the participants. WIB has grown significantly in a short time, but Grey said the committee has bigger plans for the event.

“Our intention is to participate in America in Bloom in subsequent years,” Grey said.

America in Bloom lists eight criteria necessary for communities to participate: floral displays, community involvement, environmental aware-ness, heritage preservation, landscaped areas, tidiness, turf and groundcovers, and urban for-estry. In 2009, WIB focused solely upon floral displays. This year, subcommittees to address community involvement and heritage preserva-tion have also been added.

My name is Vicki Hinkle. I have struggled with foot pain for many, many years. I have had treatment and surgery from several very experienced, sympathetic doctors over the years with some results. As time went on the foot pain increased to the point to cause life style changes. I enjoyed outdoor hiking, long walks with loved ones and occasionally a day of shopping with friends. I had accepted with sadness; the reality those days were gone. A family member had gone to Dr. Srinivasan for back pain and had experienced wonderful results. I was encouraged to inquire about possible help with my foot pain. I had wonderful results in less than a week after my treatment by Dr. Srinivasan. It has now been sev‐eral months; I am still pain free. I am able to exercise, ac‐complished weight loss and enjoy outdoor activities once again. I encourage anyone dealing with pain of any kind to schedule a consultation with Dr. Srinivasan and decide for yourself. The options available to you may give you some of your life back too!

“I would say the future of pain care is here. With terrible leg pain I had hardly played any golf for the last two years. After getting just one treatment from Dr. Srini, I cannot believe that I completed the entire 18

holes with absolutely no pain.” Otis Oliver, after permanent relief from peripheral vascular pain. He does not require surgery.

Consistently for four years in a row we have a more than 90% success rate in treating a variety of pain conditions. Dr. Srini

I have struggled with foot pain for many years, I have had treatment and surgery from several very experienced, sympathetic doctors over the years with some results. As time went on the foot pain increased to the point to cause lifestyle changes. I enjoyed outdoor hiking, long walks with loved ones and occasionally a day of shopping with

friends. I had accepted with sadness the reality that those days were gone. A family member had gone to Dr. Srinivasan for back pain and had experienced wonderful results. I was encouraged to inquire about possible help with my foot pain. I had wonderful results in less than a week after my treatment. It has now been several months; I am still pain free. I am able to exercise, accomplished weight loss and outdoor activities once again. I encourage anyone dealing with pain of any kind to schedule a consultation with Dr. Srinivasan and decide for yourself. The options available to you may give you some of your life back, too!

One of the Grand Junction Master Plan’s purposes is to act as a catalyst for economic development downtown. I’m happy to report it is working.

Notwithstanding these economically troubled times, there is activity downtown. True, some businesses have left in the past year, but they are being replaced.

Several new restaurants on Main Street are either already operating or soon will be. Maneki Neko, the Japanese restaurant formerly next to Old Country Buffet in Village Park Plaza, is pre-paring to open. It will be located on the north side of Main Street across from Subway.

Another restaurant will be going in at the northeast corner of Walnut and Main. I believe it will be primarily a breakfast place, but don’t hold me to it. Apparently there were some constraints on where they could locate, so our economic development team played a role in bringing the landlord and restaurateur together.

There is a restaurant now operating in the former Delicious Bakery location. I know cer-tain locals that used to hang out there, taking advantage of the free WiFi. Hopefully that will still be available.

St. Patrick’s Church will be locating in the old Edward Jones office on Walnut. Hopefully the congregants will patronize these new restaurants as well as our excellent existing downtown fare

after services on Sundays.Our downtown businesses will thrive if people

make a point of visiting. The extension and con-nection of the Monon and Midland trails will help. So too will the organized activities such as the Farmers Market, Westfield Rocks the Fourth, the Grand Junction Derby and the NUMA Festival.

Residential development projects will also provide potential consumers. The proposed apartment complex on South Union will bring customers. A conservation subdivision that could produce as many as 40 small cottage-style homes is being proposed on the outskirts of downtown. It will be on the Midland Trail, so homeowners will be able to easily access down-town businesses on foot.

Finally, the city just broke ground on a new fire station in front of Washington Woods El-ementary School. It will provide convenient fire service to downtown, furthering our attractive-ness to commerce.

This modest economic activity in our down-town is an excellent start. In this financial climate, most other communities in Indiana would covet our situation. Just think what’ll happen when things get turned around.

A woman approached me at a recent speak-ing engagement at which the topic of stress came up. (Honestly, when talking with groups of women anymore, when doesn’t the topic of stress come up?) She told me about a magnet she saw that said:

“Stress is when your gut says, ‘No,’ but your mouth says, ‘I’d be glad to.’”

Truly, who hasn’t this happened to in life? Our proverbial plates are full, our bank ac-counts are empty, our days are packed with ac-tivities and commitments, and our energy tanks are running on fumes.

I have found it to be helpful to try a couple things when it comes to saying yes and say-ing no to various bids for all of our precious resources.

Ask for a day to think about it.Assess why you would say yes. Do a very

thorough motive check and make sure yes is driven by true interest and plenty of available time and energy to carry out the yes.

Check to see if the request matches your personal sense of mission. There are LOTS of great things going on in this world, and we’ll be invited to be involved. We should only do the ones that are truly in our wheelhouse.

If you find your have said yes to a mismatch, you still have choices. You can ride it out if it’s a short-term deal, you can ask to be excused if it’s a long term deal, and you can definitely use it as a life lesson for the next time you get asked to do something, give something or be involved in something.

How does this pertain to community?Well, there are lots of things to be done in

a community. There are always needs for re-sources, talent and energy investment. I’m sure you’ve heard of the 80/20 rule – 80 percent of the work is done by 20 percent of the people. If we can each get a handle on what we’re good at, what resources we have to share, what our interests and passions are, then we have a bet-ter shot at living in a community where lots of people are working together and no one person or group of people is overloaded.

If you have too much going on, give some-thing up. If you aren’t doing much, find some-thing to do or somewhere to contribute. Less stress is better for all of us.

Less ‘yes’ equals less stress

Jim Shields has three greenhouses on his five-acre property. The biggest is 2,700-square feet

By Kevin Kane Current in Westfield

A sign off Grassy Branch Road leads local gardeners into Jim Shields’ daylily farm, but that’s only a small portion of the West-field botanist’s work.

Shields Gardens is known for its endless rows of daylilies in bloom this time each year. In fact, Shields estimates that most daylilies in the Carmel and Westfield areas today can be linked to his five-acre plot of land. However, a down economy and low demand for these plants is forcing Shields to scale back his staple, but at this point, he’s growing plants as much for pleasure as he is for profit.

“If you want to go into business selling daylilies, don’t quit your day job,” Shields said.

The retired Eli Lilly biochemist describes his signature plants as ones to be shared. They’re hardy and multiply easily, he said, but those attributes don’t promote repeat business. After selling thou-sands of daylilies during the past 20 years, Shields said his main product is cannibalizing his business. Since fall 2008, Shields has cut his daylily beds in half and is working to get rid of what he still has. This year, he’s even selling the plants on clearance for $5.

Between nonexistent demand and the constant need for hired hands to weed and maintain his beds, Shields isn’t making much money on daylilies these days. But though that portion of his business is quickly fading, Shields has no plans to end his work.

Beyond the daylilies at Shields Gardens are a number of green-houses and small gardens. Many of these spaces are dedicated to fostering rare and exotic plants as well as some of Shields’ hybrid creations.

“There are things here that you won’t see anywhere else in the world,” he said. “I have plants for sale that most people don’t know exist or don’t recognize the name if they see it.”

Examples include Shields’ blood lilies, or Scadoxus multiflo-rusv, from South Africa, Cryptostephanus vansonii from Zimba-bwe and species of crinums from other parts of Africa.

Shields is often given rare bulbs to salvage, as people from all over the country send him plants they cannot care for properly. Some he will purchase or acquire through trade simply to experi-ment. For example, he is currently growing crinums taken from the Gulf Coast. He said the plants aren’t thought to be hardy enough to withstand winters in the northern United States, but Shields has kept his growing and blooming for a few years, out-side and in the elements.

With a few exceptions, most of these rare and exotic plants are for sale, and the prices include Shields’ help and advice any time

it’s needed. “We’ve been here 20 years and people who have bought flowers

here only think of us for daylilies,” he said. Some very rare plants, however, are not for sale, but Shields

will gladly show them off to curious visitors. These few exceptions are kept around for his enjoyment, awaiting their eventual dona-tion to one of the bulb societies with which Shields has a working relationship.

Down the road, Shields said he will donate even more of his inventory to these societies to ensure they’re in good hands when he’s gone. Right now, though, he’s devoting his time and energy to nurturing plants that will be enjoyed by others years from now.

One of these is an aloe plant from South Africa, which Shields found as a seedling in a planter someone gave to him. He’s been caring for and growing it ever since, but he knows there will be no payoff for him. Shields said he’s positive the plant will never bloom in his lifetime, but he’s seen the same type of plant in

bloom before. Knowing the enjoyment others will receive in fu-ture years, he said, makes caring for this plant – and all the rest – worthwhile.

“When I go, the place will be bulldozed and all of this will be gone,” he said. “I’m enjoying it while I can, as much as possible, up until the last possible year.”

ABOuT DAylIlIESShields said his signature plants are easier to care for but provided a few tips: Feed lightly – Only feed them once a year or even every other year Water heavily – They need at least an inch of rainfall every week or supplemental watering lots of sun – Place them in an area that will allow at least six hours in the sun daily Check daily – Each flower is open only one day

Great American Songbook Competition winner Annie Yokom of Naperville, Ill., performs a selection last week in front of a full house at Michael Feinstein's New York cabaret, Feinstein’s at the Regency.

By Dave arland Current in Carmel

She was only two blocks from Central Park in New York, but a world away from her home in subur-ban Chicago. And for 17 year-old Annie Yokom of Naperville, Illinois, the evening debut in a New York cabaret club might mark the beginning of a Broadway career.

Yokom is the winner of the Second Annual Michael Feinstein Foundation Great American Songbook High School Competition staged in early June in Indianapo-lis – an event that moves to Carmel next year with the opening of The Palla-dium, where singer Michael Feinstein is Artistic Director.

The Feinstein Foundation works to strength-en awareness, enjoyment, and exposure for great American popular songs with today’s young people through activities like the annual competition for high school singers. Grand prize includes a performance during a show at Feinstein’s New York club. On June 15 and 16, Michael Feinstein brought Annie Yokom into

the spotlight.“It was incredible – like a dream come true,”

Yokom said, admitting a few pre-show jitters. “Michael told the crowd that this was my New York debut and he made it so comfortable to entertain ... It was so incredible that I don’t even have the words to describe it.”

Yokom may have Broadway footlights in her future. She’ll enter her senior year of high school soon and already has a long list of colleges with exceptional performing arts programs.

“After college, I will try to move to New York and start auditioning,” she said

While Yokom was on stage, Feinstein Foundation Executive Director Doris Anne Sadler realized that she was seeing the future of American popular song right before her eyes.

“Julia Bonnet of Carmel was fantastic last year, and so is Annie Yokom,” she said. “It occurred to me that the Feinstein Founda-tion is an incubator for this fantastic talent, and the reception that Annie received from a seasoned New York theater crowd

was overwhelming.”Among those in the audience were competi-

tion judges Susan Powell, a former Miss Amer-ica, and accomplished jazz singer Catherine Russell. Both live in Manhattan and turned out to cheer on the high school performer.

Can young singer Annie Yokom see more performances like this in her future?

“I hope so, because this is the coolest thing to do,” she told Current in Carmel just after the performance.

The first fruit out of the ground, from the vine, onto our table and into our mouths each year? The only one with seeds on the outside, considered in the rose family, but not fruit? It’s almost time for us to indulge. We see them ripening; the bees have already done their job of pollinating the flowers. The rains have gone, and the sun is beating down, giving the plants, flowers and buds everything needed to grow and ripen.

Each solstice from spring to summer, I write of strawberries as the passage of cold to warmth. The gardens begin to flourish with their boun-ties of harvest, ready to be robbed by the ani-mals in your yard, especially fond of these sweet treats. The following are additional facts yet to be printed by in columns; I hope you find them as intriguing as I do.

The etymology of the name “strawberry” is still basically unknown. One theory says that in the 19th century, some English children picked the berries, strung them on grass straws and then marketed them to be sold in town as “straws of berries.” The other theory says it was derived from placing straw around the growing plants to help protect the ripening fruit and fragile young stalks.

Strawberries are grown in every U.S. state and in all provinces in Canada. In California alone, there are more than 23,000 acres planted each year, which yield more than 1 billion pounds of edible crops. If the berries were picked and laid berry to berry, in a line, it would wrap around the world 15 times.

Strawberries have become very popular, and in most major polls, they are voted the second most beloved natural flavor behind, can you guess? Chocolate. When voting for favorite fruit flavor, strawberries generally win hands down,

especially among children. Most people associate these berries with

dessert, but strawberries are very versatile and match well with many things. In my hotel we will use them with cheeses, especially goat cheese, brie and all bleu varieties. Any kind of green salad concoctions do well, with the com-bination of any of the above ingredients.

Of all the fruit available, and all the ones we grow, strawberries offer some of the easiest gardening possibilities. They have more versatil-ity than most fruit, matching up with all types of foods in all cuisines, and they can be used in all courses or meal periods. So why not run out and get some today?

Here’s a nice refreshing summer beverage that is great to use up those very ripe berries, with or with out adding your favorite adult mixer.


Ingredients:• 1 cup ripe strawberries• 2 cups ice• 1 can sprite or 7 Up• 1/2 cup bar sugar

Directions:In a blender puree the berries and bar sugar until well blended. Add the ice and puree until finely crushed. Pour in the soda and pulse blend until mixed well. (If alcohol is used, add that with the ice, prior to the soda).

COCKTAIL

Students at Harvard discovered that just a few ingredients, such as garlic and chopped fresh rosemary, lend a heady fragrant aroma to a humble lamb chop. An instant-read thermometer is crucial for determining when to remove the lamb from the grill (from 140 degrees for rare to 170 degrees for well done), since doneness is a matter of personal preference.Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 chop)

Ingredients: • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh

rosemary• 1 teaspoon olive oil• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, divided• 1 garlic clove, minced• 4 (4-ounce) lamb loin chops,

trimmed• 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper• Cooking spray

Directions:1. Combine rosemary, oil, 1/4 teaspoon

salt, and garlic; rub mixture evenly over both sides of lamb. Cover and marinate in refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.

2. Prepare grill.3. Sprinkle both sides of lamb with

remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper. Place lamb on a grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 3 minutes on each side (145 degrees for medium-rare) or until desired degree of doneness.

Makes 4 servings

Ingredients: • 1 mango (12 oz.), peeled and finely

chopped • 1 tbsp. lime juice • 1 tbsp. orange juice • 1 1/2 tsp. orange juice • 1/4 small onion, finely chopped • 3/4 tsp. salt • 6 drops hot-pepper sauce • 2 tsp. chopped fresh cilantro • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast

halves (6 ounces each) • 1 tbsp. vegetable oil • 1/2 tsp. salt • 1/4 tsp. ground black pepper

Directions:1. In a medium bowl, combine the

mango, lime juice, orange juice, onion, salt and pepper sauce. Stir in the cilantro.

2. Coat a grill rack with cooking spray. Preheat the grill. Rub the chicken with the oil and season with the salt and pepper. Place on the rack and grill, turning once, until the juices run

clear and a meat thermometer registers 170°F, 10 to 12 minutes.

3. Serve topped with salsa.

Laurel Estabrook is a young, emotionally scarred social worker who survived a brutal attack while biking in Vermont seven years earlier. She is assigned the task of developing and organizing several photographs taken by a late client. But when she discovers the collection includes pictures of her on the very day she was assaulted, Laurel becomes obsessed with the photographs and the man who took them. Soon she is devoting all of her time to solving the mystery of who Bobby Crocker really was, how he became a homeless client at her shelter, and what he was doing on a deserted road with her the day she was attacked.

“The Double Bind” breathes new life into the characters from “The Great Gatsby,” who form the basis of the mystery in this fast-paced literary thriller about family secrets, mental illness and the social effects of violence. Psychological suspense and intriguing characters will keep readers turning the pages of this complex novel until a haunting twist at the end sends them back to the first pages to start again.

COMMENTARyBy laura Marenco

When your body is full of toxins – and in most cases it is – you may experience side ef-fects, including lethargy, achiness, a fatigued mind and/or a low energy level.

To prevent build up of toxins, you may elect to follow a detox diet, preferably once or twice a year along with a good quality herbal cleansing supplement – if your physician agrees. It has shown to be a good way to get back in tune with your body and give your internal systems a reset to allow them to work at their best.

The human body constantly is working to eliminate toxins through the lungs, kidneys, digestive system and particularly the liver. Ev-ery minute of every day a properly functioning liver eliminates small amounts of toxins, heavy metals, bacteria and other impurities from the blood before returning it to circulation. If the impurities are not bound by fiber, they may be subject to re-absorption and recirculation by your body, ending up where they started, and therefore leaving you no better off.

Trapping and binding toxins secreted through bile for transport from the body is crucial for effective support of the body’s internal detoxification and cleansing func-tions. A cleanse program assists the body’s

natural “sweeping” process by providing fiber and herbal supplements to trap and move toxins through the digestive tract and sweep the colon of accumulated waste. Most cleanse programs are a 10-day process and should be paired with a healthy diet, including simple and light meals along with fresh fruit and vegetables.

Performing a body cleanse also can be a great way to jumpstart weight loss and boost metabolism, as it can get your digestive organs functioning at peak performance again. In-ternal organs will work more optimally with the removal of excess waste, and studies have found that the body will become more effi-cient and can improve the way it transports fat from cells for energy.

A cleanse program can help you achieve weight loss, improve energy and enhance nu-trient absorption, and it can prevent easy fa-tigability, headaches and other somatic pains. Perform a body cleanse from time to time, and you can achieve optimal health and function-ing in no time.

COMMENTARy By Dr. Jodie Harper & Dr. Angela Corea

Exfoliation is a process in which dead cells on the surface of the skin are sloughed away, reveal-ing new, healthy skin cells. Exfoliation occurs naturally, but as we age, cellular turnover slows down, giving skin a dull appearance.

Oily skin has difficulty exfoliating on its own, because oil in the skin causes the dead cells to stick together. When the skin is dry, dead skin accumulates quickly, creating a thick, dry shell.

There are many manual methods of exfolia-tion that can help increase cell turnover. Adding these simple exfoliation treatments to your skin-care regimen can make a big difference.

Over time, regular exfoliation may reduce the appearance of fine lines and large pores. Your skin will have a youthful, healthy glow.

Manual methods include cleansing with a washcloth or a gentle motorized brush, such as the Clarisonic. Treatments like facials and Vi-bradermabrasion are also good options. Topical methods of exfoliation like chemical peels and products like prescription-strength Tretinoin (Retin-A) and Alpha-hydroxy acids are also very effective.

Some of the benefits of exfoliating:• Skin appears more radiant.• The appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

is reduced.• Pores are unclogged.• Skin stays healthy, helping to prevent

break-outs.• Absorption of skin-care products is

improved.• Moisture retention is improved.• Skin feels soft and smooth.Exfoliation is an important step in any skin

care regimen, but if you’re using methods that are too aggressive for your skin type, you could be risking your skin’s health. Talk to your skin-care professional about which type and what frequency of exfoliation is best for your skin type.

A simple way to immensely improve your skin

COMMENTARyBy lance Goyke

Ever remember hearing sodium is bad for you? Yeah … they were wrong.

Maybe they were playing some sick joke on you. Some friend they are. I suppose it’s possible they just didn’t know better, because the entire myth originated with food companies touting their products as “low sodium” to make them appear healthy without any actual scientific evidence.

In fact, that just may have been the best mar-keting strategy in the history of America. The claim is that sodium increases blood pres-sure. Well, it does, but only temporarily, because it makes your blood retain more water, increas-ing the volume of your blood. It’s not a perma-nent problem.

Sodium, commonly referred to as salt, is an electrolyte. These electrolytes are very important for someone when they encounter a long bout of sweating. All athletes need sufficient levels of electrolytes. Another well-known electrolyte is potassium. The two interact together, so too little of either, as you could imagine, would be detrimental.

Your water and electrolyte levels are self-regu-lated by being secreted in urine. However, there are a few occasions when you should limit your sodium intake: genetic predisposition (which your doctor should inform you about) and high

blood pressure from other factors (i.e. you’re too unhealthy).

High blood pressure is commonly associated with many other symptoms, as a result of obesi-ty. If your health is already poor, a higher blood volume (from higher sodium intake) will only worsen your problems. It could potentially turn atherosclerosis into a full-blown stroke. My sug-gestion? Exercise, eat healthfully, and cook with salt, because it brings flavor to everything. Don’t deprive yourself of something that used to be traded ounce for ounce with gold!

» Bad alcohol in hair – Some alco-hols – such as cetyl, cetearyl, and stearyl – are actually moisturizing. But oth-ers – like denatured, propanol, propyl, and isopropyl – should be avoided. The latter are used for hold and control, but they are also very drying. Better options for 40+ hair, which is often drier due to a dip in its natural oils, are products that contain moisturizing alcohols and hair-strengthening proteins. Another strand-saving tip: Consider applying a leave-in conditioner on a regular basis, especially if you use heated tools like a curling or flat iron.

» Calcium at every age – Calcium reduces your risk of osteoporosis, but you don’t have to wait until menopause to start watching how much you need. Kids need about 1,500 milligrams of calcium a day until they hit puberty. Adults ages 15 to 50 are fine with about 1,000 milligrams a day, but older people, especially postmenopausal women, need to go back up to 1,500 milligrams daily.

Healthy touch is a key element in promot-ing essential bonding between children and their parents. Massaging your baby enhances the emotional bond with your child and can calm him down, improve sleep patterns and help soothe their stomach. It’s also a wonderful way to share special time with the new addition to your family.

When? Choose a point when you are relaxed and unhurried and won’t be interrupted. Don’t plan to massage your baby when he has a full stomach or is hungry.

How? Make sure you are comfortable. Sit on the floor or on the bed, or put your baby on your lap. Lay your baby on his back on a terry towel since first you’ll massage the front of your baby, then the back. The room should be warm (75 degrees if possible). Talk to or sing to your baby. You both might also enjoy some soothing music in the background.

With what? Natural oils are the best, such as almond oil. Warm a few drops in your hands before beginning.

A few notes of warning: Don’t use oil on

the head or face. It’s important to respect your baby’s space. Ask permission, even if your baby can’t give verbal consent yet. Stop if you sense overstimulation. As babies grow they will be more apt to enjoy a longer session, but children really enjoy it. My kids still ask for foot-rubs to this day.

Go! Fight! Win back your health, Indiana! Let the massages begin!

COMMENTARyBy randy sorrell

This wonderful Carmel family hoped to transform an outlived backyard space housing a large play set in a sea of mulch into a small escape that family and friends could casually enjoy. A formal house nestled in a quasi-wood-land setting presented a fantastic opportunity to develop a retreat in partnership with nature, yet explored the modern elements often found in our Hamilton County neighborhoods.

Phase 1 provided a stunning update to the premium pressure-treated deck by opening up the space with stylish black aluminum spindles, wider transition steps and a redesigned floor plan. While we prefer lively synthetics, this project reminded me of the virtues of real wood. Horizontally inspired facia breaks up the cavernous void under the second story deck, which the climbing hydrangea is quickly con-suming. Hidden access doors open to an appre-ciated storage area.

Phase 2 centered on the natural lower liv-ing area with an Indiana limestone seat wall boldly retaining the woods edge. Natural field-stone boulders serve to break up the wall and provide a little drama. We debated the patio floor surface for a few weeks and eventually embraced an edgy, compacted dusty limestone material framed by an informal tumbled brick paver. You’ve likely seen this cost-friendly sur-face employed on the Broad Ripple canal walk-

ing paths and in the formal garden paths of the IMA. It is equally comfortable in each.

Creating the right vibe is always a primary ambition and the result of careful planning. The recessed fire feature edged with the repeated

patio paver, surrounding native inspired land-scape and functioning dry creek bed elements makes this a contemporary blend of form and function. Early reports are encouraging – lots of late-night wood fires with family and friends,

time to relax and time to play. They are mak-ing the most of summer. Making the most of life. Incredible outdoor living spaces can do that.

AlERT:Remember those irritating maple seedlings

/ helicopters consuming our mulch beds in May? They have a tendency to slip through gutter protection devices and enter downspout extensions that may become clogged, causing water to back up and spill into the foundation or basement. Check yours to make certain they don’t end up like the photo. Bummer: It’s real, it’s mine.

There’s nothing better than a satisfying backyard transformation

During the early months of summer, a hosta enthusiast might think: Am I gardening? Or feeding slugs?

Unlike feeding birds, feeding slugs is rather disheartening. Large holes in the delicate leaves of hostas absolutely spoil their appearance. Funny how the size of the holes is directly pro-portionate to the size of each fat and happy slug in your garden, huh?

Hostas thrive in a shady, moist environment, as do slugs. And because their leaves are so close to the soil surface, they’re extremely susceptible to damage.

Through the night, slugs feed their slimy way through our gardens and that makes it hard to hand pick them because gardeners are sleeping. Some people swear by jar lids filled with beer sunk into the soil surface, but I can’t help think-ing “Waste beer on dreadful slugs? Why should they have all the fun?”

Or, I’ve heard using a vinegar solution twice in May, which kills young slugs. But I’ve found that the key to slug-free hostas is the careful selection of resistant varieties. Some varieties resist damage and it’s all in the substance of the leaf.

Note that some hosta leaves are more sub-

stantial than other, more papery-leaved hostas. There is a distinct difference.

Blue-leaf hostas, which are really a gray-green color, (gardeners love to say blue when it’s clear-ly not, like we’re colorblind) typically have a thicker, more substantial leaf. Some great blues are Elegans, Halcyon and Love Pat, all of which resist slug damage.

Blue hostas prefer denser shade than yellow leaf hostas, which can actually tolerate quite a bit of sun. Several yellow hostas have sub-stantial leaves like Sum and Substance. See, substance is even in the name. Also check out Sunpower. You’ll be pleased.

Besides keeping slugs at bay, these hostas are a carefree and hardy garden plant. You can divide and share them, and some of them have incred-ibly fragrant flowers. Look to the large white flowers for fragrance, as the lavender flowers are less fragrant.

And enjoy gardening again…without feeding the slugs.

Recently, I shared a link from a campaign on Facebook. I had received an e-mail around a political issue in which the goal was to get a petition signed. The e-mail was sent to 3,500 people. With each send, the open rate of the email decreased. The number of visitors to the companion Web site also slowly dwindled as did the number of people signing the petition.

After a month, I clicked the “share” button in the email message I had received. I shared the message, which dropped a link with a comment, into my Facebook account. I’ve only got 150 friends in Facebook, and I’m not active with this network. Still, I had 16 “friends” comment on the link and comment on my simple message that accompanied the link, “If you live in Indi-ana, you should check this out.”

All this activity occurred within 30 minutes of sharing the link. All ages responded, from my 21-year-old sister-in-law to my 76-year-old father. It’s also worth noting that not all of the comments were positive. Two people disagreed and presented an opposing viewpoint.

The next day I checked the Web site statistics and during the hour I shared the link, which was several days after I got the e-mail, there was a spike of 10 additional unique visits and

10 new signatures on the petition. Sixteen of my friends made comments and 10 visited and signed. All this activity sparked by one 42-year-old sharing a link in one social network where he has 150 friends. What if 50 people did that? What if instead of sending an email to 3,500 people we simply asked the 250 people affiliated with the campaign to share the link in all their social networks?

That is “the network effect.” People want to connect with people and they believe other peo-ple most. A first-person voice is always preferred to a company message. And while not everyone is interested in social networks, these networks and the network effect can’t be ignored. Every-one’s heard of them and that alone makes them influential.

Facebook for me is a lot like church. I don’t go there as often as I should and I’m certainly not as active as I should be, but it appears I still have a relationship with the people I know there.

The bakery, which opened on July 11 on Old Meridian Street, is best known for its homemade, natural breads and aims to teach customers the benefits of whole grain. Each freshly baked loaf has five natural ingredients, no preservatives, and “nothing you can’t pronounce.” Great Harvest’s open layout allows cus-tomers to see the bread making process and watch as the bakers mill the wheat, knead the dough, and handcraft each loaf.

Great Harvest also offers sandwiches, sweets, and a place to sit and enjoy the atmosphere and the company of others. The Carmel location, which is part of the Great Harvest franchise that has been operating for 30 years, was started by Mark Lubin, who has spent over 20 years in the food industry, and his wife Dia, previously a stay-at-home mom. Though the bread will sweeten up summer, the Lubins hope their family-friendly bakery will also provide a sense of community.

The Bredehoft-Clarke research group asserts that when we overindulge our kids we are show-ing signs of neglect that causes them distress later in their adult life. If we believe this to be true, why would we overindulge our kids?

The following quiz can offer us some clues. See which ones you feel are true and which ones are false. Mark them with a “T” or “F.” I overindulge my kids because …

1. It relieves my feelings of guilt for ne-glecting them and/or their feelings.

2. I was overindulged as a child.3. It masks my favoritism.4. I fear confrontation or rejection and

want to “smooth things over” for them.5. I see it as a way of controlling my

children.6. I want to project a certain image of my

kids.7. I’m competing with my spouse, part-

ner or grandparents over control of my child.

8. I feel I lack the parenting skills to set limits.

9. I want to be fair.10. I need to take the path of least resistance.11. I need to get them off my back; it’s a

quick fix for whining.12. I need to compensate for being an abu-

sive parent.13. I need to compensate for being an absent

parent.14. I need to provide my kids with the

things I never had.15. I need to compensate for the lack of

time and energy I have to teach my kids developmental skills.

16. I need to bribe my child into the behav-ior I want them to display.

17. I need to project my needs onto my kids’ by indulging them with the best of ev-erything so they have no excuses not to perform in a way I couldn’t.

18. I’m afraid of my child’s anger.If you marked all 18 reasons as “true” you are

correct. All of these reasons have been reported. Research shows us of those kids who were over-indulged, 67 percent felt the overindulgence related to parental problems, not to their wel-fare. Hugs!

There’s a speaking trend going on right now that I dislike. It’s common among teenagers and young adults. The trend is this: After stating something amazing, weird, fascinating, obscure or otherwise interesting, the speaker waits for a response from the audience – oral or visual – and then adds, “I know, right?”

Do you hear that? It’s me pounding my head against the desk in front of me.

This probably shouldn’t irritate me to the level that it does, but it reminds me of an in-teresting language phenomenon most prevalent among women: asking permission for requests and other statements.

Let me explain. How many times have you heard someone make a request or a statement, and then follow it with, “OK?”? For example, “I need you to clean your room, OK?” No, not OK. The problem here is that the statement isn’t a question or an option. It’s a requirement. But if you add the “OK?” to the end, it becomes an option. And it’s a weak way of communicating.

The same is true with, “I know, right?” It’s almost like asking permission for the story to be amazing or funny or ridiculous or whatever: “I know it’s amazing/funny/ridiculous, don’t I?” More appropriate would be something along the lines of, “Can you imagine that?” or “Isn’t that awful/hilarious/crazy?”

Unlike the “OK?” issue, “I know, right?”

seems to be widely used by members of both genders. Normally, this type of wishy-washy language is used most frequently by girls and women because of some underlying thinking that it’s more feminine to ask rather than state what you need. While it may be considered, in certain circumstances, more polite to ask for things (“Would you pass me the sugar, please?”), when you need something, it’s not impolite to just state it (“Dan, please make 10 copies of these brochures.”). Adding “OK?” is totally un-necessary, and it cripples the request.

Men tend to have fewer problems using strong language (and I’m not talking about swearing here, folks) because they are, in gen-eral, raised with the idea that strength is tan-tamount to masculinity, so that rubs off in the way they speak. Next time you’re at a restaurant with a mixed-gender group, listen to how men and women order their food. Men tend to state what they want (“I’ll have the surf and turf”), and women tend to ask for what they want (“Could I have a Caesar salad, please?”).

In any case, I’d like to see “I know, right?” eliminated from the vernacular of, well, everyone.

It’s funny what people do with freedom.Among the topics covered today in standard

U.S. History high school text books is the Sec-ond Great Awakening, the Evangelical Christian movement in America’s first 50 years or so from the late 1700s into the mid-1800s.

Remembering that the U.S. Constitution was written in 1787, ratified in 1788, and took full effect in 1789, it’s interesting to note that histo-rians typically date the start of the Second Great Awakening as 1790.

FYI, the “First Great Awakening” in America was circa 1740, led by philosopher and scientist Jonathan Edwards. His phenomenal grasp of Christian intellectual and spiritual pursuits, and his prolific writing, are often overshadowed by one exceptionally famous yet (for him) highly atypical sermon, “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God.”

That sermon has been used ever since, oxy-moronically it seems, to scare people into the secure and loving arms of Jesus Christ. Christ didn’t die because God was mad at us; Christ died because God loved us (John 3:16), and Edwards knew that. It’s more illuminating to read Edwards’ less famous works (15 volumes worth), but I digress.

Back to 1790, the Second Great Awaken-ing, and a new government created by “We the people, in order to form a more perfect union.” Perhaps the first full, free cultural expression of

America’s newly ordained citizenry was to get God into the act.

For all the hue and cry and debate about whether the United States of America is a “Chris-tian country,” at its founding (1770s and 1780s) only a small minority, perhaps only 10 percent, of the Colonial population belonged to a mainline Protestant church – the Anglicans, the Puritan Congregationalists, Presbyterians Lutherans, etc.

The organized Protestant churches, remem-ber, were part of the British tyranny and Euro-pean establishment from which the Colonies were trying to free themselves.

Belonging to a church, we infer, was not the fashion. Believing in God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit, however, was demonstrably perva-sive in American culture.

To that point, it is telling that the U.S. Consti-tution’s “We the people” Preamble quoted above, included the action phrase, “and (to) secure the blessings of Liberty on ourselves and our Posterity.”

America thus began, and an awakened, free people understood Liberty to be a blessing from God. Political and cultural freedom, united with personal faith in God, proceeded to storm across the American landscape.

Bob Walters (www.believerbob.blogspot.com, email [email protected]) contemplates America and has no doubt “God shed His grace on thee.” More next week.

Ah, Paris! It is the quintessential city of haute couture, the birthplace of style, and the incubator for trends.

Maison et Objet, the Parisian home decor trade show, is, undoubtedly, the debutante ball for fashion and de-sign momentum. Attendance at this show is high on my bucket list, but I must live vicariously for now and simply glean information about the introductions that will even-tually cross the pond – from sources who did attend.

It appears the big color story was in the blue family. Pale baby blue to deep shades of indigo indicated a cooler direction for spring/summer. Turquoise is still strong in shades, ranging from soft shades of robin’s egg blue to deep-saturated, gem-like turquoise. Green has gone chartreuse, while the pale orchid and lavender shades, which have been testing the water for the past six months, are gain-ing a foothold.

All of these tones are being served against a background of grey for a cool summer palette.

Scale took the stage with size and impact. Even the most tra-ditional pattern, when morphed into over-sized scale, provided drama. Exceptionally large floral, plaids and damasks stole the show.

Stacking and layering was spotted everywhere at Maison et Objet, offering a “Princess and the Pea” fairytale-like feel to home decor.

The global nature of news and culture has impacted the path

of design. The reports shared that details such as beading, bottle caps, recycled wire and screen-printed native prints were making their way onto furniture, accessories and hand-woven baskets. The fusion of India and pop culture was another direction seen on pillows with photographic images of street scenes and detailed embroidery in updated circles and swirls. Gardening in urban settings is a trend supported with terrariums and vertical hang-ing planters.

Not a stick of stained wood could be found in the 3,000 showrooms of this international interior style show. Raw and reclaimed wood finishes, bleached woods and painted woods were the foundation pieces. All the finishes, even the painted ones, had a grey-washed undertone.

Linen and hand woven textiles were found used for ev-erything from upholstery to bedding. There was elegance

in the simple nature of these fabrics, especially when adorned with monograms and embroidered motifs.

While some of these trends have been spotted in the U.S., some are still in the infancy stages. Regardless, it is safe to consider the Maison Object Trade show as a crys-

tal ball of our interior design future. As always, trends a just that: trends. Take them as a hint of an overall direction, but never a substitute for beauty and good taste.

It has been 145 years since gener-als Robert E. Lee and Ulysses S. Grant signed the unconditional surrender at Appomat-tox, Va., in April 1865, officially ending the American Civil War. In that horrible four-year conflict, more than 600,000 soldiers died defending their states, their beliefs and their honor. This civil con-flict impacted every facet of Ameri-can history and culture. It is such an ingrained part of our heritage that it continues almost every weekend somewhere in the United States through living history re-enactors. Back by popular demand, the Civil War re-enactors will once again

set up camp at CarmelFest. Units representing the Union and the

Confederacy will be in uniform and in character. While these are re-enactor units, they represent actual regiments in the war. These men have full-time jobs, and are not paid for their avocations as re-enactors. They purchase their

own authentic replicas of uniforms, equipment and weapons, and often wear the facial hair and haircuts that were used by their forefathers in the actual conflicts. A little known fact about our

state’s role in the Civil War is that Indiana had more volunteers for the Union than any other state. In addi-tion, there were 47 Medal of Honor winners from Indiana, including

Captain William W. Kendall, of the 49th. The Civil War re-enactors are please to be returning to CarmelFest. Their encamp-ment area will be set up just east of City Hall on the grounds of our good friends at Marketing Services of Indiana. Make sure you drop by and visit with them, and experience a little of our Hoosier heritage. They will be happy to offer you a sample of fire-roasted coffee

and piece of hard-tack. For more information visit www.carmelfest.net.

SponSored in part by

CarmelFest 2010 will take place on Sunday, July 4, from noon to 10:30 p.m. and on Monday, July 5, from Noon to 10:30 pm at Carmel Civic Square.

The fireworks display will be simulcast to music on soft rock B105.7 FM.

S c h e d u l e of eventS

you can support the Carmelfest fireworks display by purchasing colorful Spark buttons. two types are available: the traditional Spark buttons for $3 each and the new, light-up Spark buttons for $6 each.

Spark buttons are available through the Carmel rotary Club from select merchants in the Carmel arts & design district, at the Saturday Carmel farmers’ Market, and at Wednesday night Gazebo concerts.

Jim Burrell and his wife Joyce have been Carmel resi-dents for over 34 years. They have watched Carmel grow and evolve and are proud to be a part of the ever-changing landscape. As a member of the Rotary Club of Carmel, Jim has been an active volunteer with CarmelFest since the

Rotary first became involved as the facilitators of the Festival. This year, Jim is serving as Carmel-Fest Traffic & Parking Director. His primary focus is working on shuttle service for the festival. As Jim put it, “We want everyone to be able to get to and from the celebration safely and comfort-ably”. When asked what he enjoys most about Carmelfest, “I enjoy the entire event; it is a great celebration and a truly happy event for me, my family, and this community”.

COmmentarYBy Dick wolfsie

Every morning when I get up, I peruse my mini yellow legal pad, where the previous night I have meticulously outlined every chore and re-sponsibility I need to address the next day. I put everything on the list. I even include “get dressed” to avoid embarrassing moments, like the time I ran into Marsh at 6 a.m. for a quart of milk.

You may be scoffing at my lack of sophistication, wonder-ing why I don’t link my iPad to my Droid or upload Facebook to my iPhone. Maybe download my LinkedIn data to the iPod. I have no idea if what I just said makes any sense, but I do know I have a tee time at noon. It’s on my list. When someone designs a legal pad with a USB port, we can talk about this again.

Several years ago, my wife squeezed in a few extra chores when she found the list on my desk, which is why the next day I went to Shelbyville to make a speech to the Rotary Club, checked my list and came home to mow the lawn, then drove back 30 miles to Shelbyville to eat lunch. It seemed odd at the time, but that’s what the list said. I never question my list.

The list I create each evening often contains weightier obligations that I first note in my Week-at-a-Glance, a standard calendar that, incredibly, costs $39.95 at most office supply stores. I’ve had one every year since college, and I have no intention of giving it up for some-thing that requires charging. I do wish I had bought several calendars each January back in the ’60s and ‘70s when they were really cheap, because apparently every five or six years, the days of the week and the dates match again. Why wasn’t I informed of this?

Recently, my Week-at-a-Glance calendar was stolen from the front seat of my car. The crook

also took my GPS, a huge package of Slim Jims and two 12-packs of Bud Lite. I decided not to call the police because I had pretty much provided this low-life with enough provisions to be on the lam for a week. There was also a

stack of 100 WISH-TV photos of me. All 100 were still there. That punk could have taken just one.

If you’re the guy who stole my calendar, a couple of re-minders of things to do, in case you don’t have a yellow legal pad you can upload to. You have a dental appointment, but don’t try to cancel. They get very grumpy about reschedul-ing. Enjoy your root canal.

You also have a golf date with Greg at noon on June 18. He’s an ex-cop. Maybe you can

chat about what you do in your free time. He’d get a kick out of that. And you need to get my wife a wedding anniversary gift. It’s our 30th. You should have stolen my book last year. You could have gotten away with a cheap scarf.

You also have a breakfast speech at a retire-ment home. Sorry to make you get up so early, but that will give you more time later in the day to break into cars. And don’t get any bright ideas about committing a heist at the senior cot-tages. There are six locks on every door. By the way, this place is way out in the boonies. But you’ll find it. You have my GPS, remember?

Finally, I have a humor column deadline every Sunday at noon. Try to come up with something clever and original. For example, this week I wrote about how you broke into my car. I hope readers find that funny. Even if I didn’t.

Who needs an iPad when you have a notepad?

COMMENTARyBy Mike Redmond

Well, the World Cup is up and run-ning, literally. Lot of running in that game. Seems they’d get smart, strap on skates and play it on ice.

Anyway, what little watching I have done has left me with the distinct impres-sion that this soccer stuff is going to catch on, one of these days.

I’m just kidding. I know soccer is the planet’s main game. I’m actually a big fan, and I like the World Cup almost as much as I like the hockey cup playoffs named for Stanley.

I like the purity of soccer – this is the ball, those are your feet, over that way is the goal, have at it and try not to (a.) use your hands or (b.) kill each other.

Now, I can’t say I understand everything about it. Goals, for instance. I know they’re few and far between, but is it really necessary for the guy who scores a goal to run around the sta-dium doing all that hugging? I’m not kidding. He kicks the ball into the net and he’s mobbed by all his teammates on the field. Then he runs over to the bench and he’s mobbed by all his teammates there. Then he goes across the field and hugs all those guys. Then he runs up in the stands and hugs Sections 107 through 121, Rows A through NN. Then he puts his shirt

back on and they start playing again.You never see this sort of behavior in other

events, such as, oh, bridge tournaments.Another thing you do not see, or more rightly

hear, is that ceaseless racket in the background of every broadcast. It’s made by something called a vuvuzela (when it’s not being called a lepatata) and basically, it’s a horn that makes a sound described as a giant hive of very un-friendly bees. Or bees flat, since B-flat is the note produced.

Although the presently annoying version is South African, you see horns like this at soccer games all over the world except, of course, pee wee league games at public parks on Saturday mornings, although I suppose it’s just a matter of time before some parent shows up with one.

Which, now that I think about it, might be far preferable to some of the things parents shout at kiddie league games of all varieties.

One of things I enjoy about the World Cup is the fact that vuvuzela players from every corner of the globe descend on it. You see every variety of human available, and a few that I suspect haven’t yet been categorized by the anthropologists.

I used to work with a sports editor who made fun of soccer. If it wasn’t part of his big four – football, basketball, golf, auto racing – it was to be mocked. I guess

he reasoned that the only real sports were the ones he considered American (never mind that golf originated in Scotland and race cars are worldwide).

But I also worked with a wire editor who reminded young reporters like me that most of the world is not American, not white, not male, and doesn’t speak English. He could have thrown in something about most of the world playing soccer, too, but we have the World Cup to remind us of that. Hand me my vuvuzela.

The World Cup is on? Hand me my vuvuzela
